Appointment was a review with a satisfactory outcome.
Dr Dora was attentive. Listened to my concerns and together we plored what would be the right course of action. As a clinician myself I loved the fact that I was able to discuss what would be suitable was key.
Dr Amran took over starting and issuing the meds for my condition she had no response from the Brompton and then a specialist doctor at Basildon to see me with regard to her findings, she was so helpful and has called me regularly to see how I am progressing with the medication and has now been in contact with Papworth hospital who have sent me an appointment to review and possibly take over
I’d been struggling with a steadily worsening chest problem ever since a severe bout of Covid in 2020. Each year it became harder to manage. By this year, most mornings took me 30–90 minutes just to feel well enough to leave the house, and I was still coughing throughout the day. I saw countless doctors and even ended up in A&E several times, but nothing truly helped. Finally, I decided to go private and booked an appointment with Dr. Amran — and I am so grateful I did. Within minutes of explaining my history, she understood exactly what was going on and knew precisely what treatment I needed. Thanks to her, my chest now feels the way it did back in 2019. She is an exceptional doctor: knowledgeable, compassionate, patient, and genuinely invested in the people she treats. I can’t recommend her highly enough to anyone dealing with chest or respiratory issues.
Dr Amran is fantastic. Very patient when explaining procedures and how your treatment will progress. Very caring and always takes the time to ensure you are comfortable and content. A valuable asset for Southend Hospital.
I have never met a more thorough and cal.ly competent professional, friendly, approachable and confidence inspiring.
Dr Amran is amazing. She has a wonderfully friendly manner which instantly puts you at ease. Dr Amran explained everything so well and was very happy to answer any of my questions. After suffering from a cough which refused to go for about 18 months, Dr Amran's expertise has completely sorted it out. I am so grateful, thank you so much Doctor.
I am very pleased with the Consultation and care I received from Dr Amran, is very knowledgeable, sensitive and informative and she explained my results and illustrated this showing the images of my lungs and explained what their were concerned about in lay man’s terms and shared with me my care plan. I was able to share with my family what was discussed as I understood what was said. Me and my son walked away, very impressed with the overall experience. HIGHLY recommend.
Dr Dora Amran is a very caring and compasionate doctor. I highly recommend her.
